GENERAL BoULANGER's arrest by order
OF Minister Ferron is one of the most
important events in the history of French
politics in long time. The prominence
and popularity OF Boulanger, who is the
Idol Of tie French people, AID the fact
that he WAS about to compel President
Grevy TO resign, shows either that Fer
ron is excessively bold aud intends to
carry things by storm or that he has good
grounds for believing that the doughty
general is guilty OF participation in the
Csfarel scandal. The arrest may create
more trouble than it was intended to
avert. One blast upon Boulanger's bugle
horn will rally host Of johnny Crs-
psuds who will rally to his support, lii
crate him, ana march for the Rhine.

Telegraph Competition.

IIlldQSlpnIa h6CCIuI
The price at which the Baltimore and
Ohio Telegraph Company was absorbed
by the Western Union Company was
$1,000, 900 in Western Union stock, What.
ever it may be ultimately worth, and an
annuity Of 100000, making g total Of,
say, $4,000 600. This fact suggests one
or two important considerations If q
telegraph operation worth only $4,000. =
900 can become formidable rival OF the
Western Union Company and an object
of its cupidity, the expenditure Of ike
sum could create another rival TO the
hydrocephalous monopoly, with lis
Watered capital OF 100000, 900. While
the Western Union company must I'm
dividends on this amount or become
bankrupt, new telegraph company
could connect al the important business
centers Of the country for one-tenth of
the sum. With such an opening for en-
terprise, why should the business men of
the United States who are interested in
cheap telegrsphy call upon the govern
ment to help them3 In view of the pos
sibIe future Of the Baltimore and OHIO
Telegraph system it Is not strange that
Mr. Robert Garrett should grieve ever It's
absorption by the Western Union mon
opoly for trife of Sc 900 900.

THE Chicago Herald is one of the lsrg-
est, as it has always been one Of the
ablest, newspapers in the country. Its
recent increase in size from four to eight
pages has given space for much

attractions or weakening its force. The
Herald is fast climbing to the top of jour

Train in Chicago.
GhicnQn Infnr.Onnan

The people of Chicago may be disposed
to look upon the vagsries OF George
Francis Train with all possible Charity,
but they are not disposed to permit even
crank or mOuntebanK TO play with
fire in powder magazine. II EIr Train
comes here with purpose to inf sme the
dangerous elements of society or TO en-
courage contempt for or defiance Of law,
he will be treated Just as would Most Or
euy other enemy of law and order. Mr.
Trains professional rankishHess will not
blind him TO knowledge OF certain fscts
that are just now very conspicuous One
OF these IS that the people OF ChIcsgo,
having tried one experiment with home
incendiaTies, is in no mood to tolerate 81

THE END APPROACHING,

If the reports be true that train ROB-
Der nesr Ell Paso was killed while attempt
ing to rob an express csr, the days Of
train robbing in Texas can be considered
ended. The pluCky messenger who,
though considerably shaken up, had the
nerve to pour the contents of his shot
gun into one OF the attacking party has
opened the way and established a prece-
dent which will eventuate in the total
suppression OF these outrages. Other
messengers, inspired by his brave con-
duct. will become emulous, and the re-
ception of future ASSISTANTS will be warm.
It is very easy to imagine how q Car con-
tanning large sums of money should be
defended when the danger is remote. but
it is not so easy to face the muir
deroGs Winchester Of lot Of
desperadoes who care nothing for
the taking of life. Still, it
is highly probable that if any one Of the
robbers were killed II the outset the rest
would retreat precipitately. Everything
is against the attacking party. The eX-
press car offers hiding place if not &
fertilization from the bullets Of the agrees
sors, and il GOODNESS and nerve are exer-
cised, and the first one who pokes his
head into the car is shot down, it is al
most certain that those on the outside
will beat hGsty retreat. Express mes
sengers will resort to strategy in the fu-
ture. The train robber has come to be so
numerous and his methods so well IN
deIstood that his exploits will be less
successful snd mis- life in greater danger.

The B. and o. Absorption.

w
Apropos OF the absorption Of the Balti-
more and Ohio Telegraph system by the
Western Union, The Day has heard that
such consolidation may not affect the sit
u6tion in Texas TO any material extent,
unless, indeed, the Western Union and
the Gull, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway
Company shall make deal. In short, so
The Dsy hears, the Baltimore and Ohio
has never strung many wires of its own in
Texas. When it came here it found the
Santa Fe Railroad operating small eys-
TEN OF telegraph wires, constructed and
owned by said railway, Chiefly on the
Gulf, Colorado snd Santa Fe lines. The
Baltimore and Oaio leased this plsnt,
with stipulation $50 it is said) in the
lease, that in the event the
lessee should sell out to any
other telegraph company, the
plant thus leased should be handed back
20 the Santa Fe Railroad. It is no doubt
true that the Baltimore and OHIO enlarged
the plant to some extent, but the original
system has offices ct q number CT towns
in Texas and il the Santa Fe sees fit to
keep up its system those towns may yet
have telegrnphic competitive service IN
side the state st least. The Day is not in
1 position to vouch for the accuracy Of
the iatormstion above stated, but gets 1t
from &,source that is believed to be re-
liable.

EARNING AND SAVING.

TIE Lynn (Mass } Item tells the story
of q boy in SHOE factory, VINO ten years
ago was st work for Sc per week, and,
proving industrious and intelligent, his
employer raised his wages, first to IS,
then to $40, S12, SIS, $50, and finally, as
he gained thorough knowledge CT enc
part of the business, he became foreman
of thst department short time since at
S25 per week He began to save some
thing on Sc per week, and at the end Of
ten years, having a wife and several
children, he made, few days since, the
lagt payment on a house and lot which
cost $1,000, and is worth more than that.
The comment OF the Item is that
the Hundreds Of young men in
Lynn who earn good wages and spend
all they get should resd this little
story carefully and think it over serious
~" Young men cannot be impressed
too forcioly with the necessity of saving
something. Much of the happiness, mis-
cry, success or failure Of q whole career
depends upon which side the balance be-
tween the expense and income rests. The
amount of the balance in bank to q mans
credit is the measure of his independence,
and laborirg men who complain of slsV-
ing themselves rivet the chains by spend
ing all they earn, and debt 10 Z laboring
man is the degradation of that slavery.

To newspaper writer this monthly is
an Invaluable assistant, as glance at the

The opening pages have, in response TO
s request from the editor 20 give their
opinion OF what an ideal dramatic criti-
cism ought TO be, answers from fifteen
prominent critics, embodying many ez-
cellent suggestions. q general summing
of these may be, that ideal criticism is
that which IS reasonable, instructive and
unbiased, considering specially neither
actor, author, or the public.
The faults of writer's for the daily press
are well noted, IS are the trials OF editors
aud reporters. VeXed questions in the
use # negatives and in punctuation are
considered. Mr. Bigelow, excellent au-
thority On correct writing, says Of the
latter: "Fhe ideal sentence should be so
clearly written that 1t will punctuate
itself, or cannot be Dispunctusted."
